From Charmy

Every once in a while, when any of us neighbors would celebrate something, or cook something nice and worth sharing, we always share it amongst ourselves. Last Friday, our neighbor Charmy said they just thought of cooking champorado (chocolate rice porridge), and thinking I still haven't eaten breakfast, they just gave us a bowlful of it. I am not much into this food, but I loved it because it had so many milk in it.

The plush toy was given by my sister.

Sister's Treat

For my birthday last Wednesday, there wasn't a celebration really, but my sister was so nice to treat me out for lunch. It was our goal always to eat at a place where we haven't eaten yet, and our choice for this time was French Baker. We have tasted their breads and pastries, but we haven't tasted their meals.





My personal choice was the hickory spareribs. I loved how the meat was well marinated, the meat was juicy, and the sauce was just right. Their mushroom gravy was great, too!


Sister chose baked chicken as her meal. I was able to taste it, and i was good, too! The meat was just right, not that juicy, but it's tender.

Even though the family didn't have a definite celebration. Being able to spend it with my sister was enough to make me happy. Thanks so much sis for this treat. I love you.

Patola and Kalabasa with Misua

I noticed that I have been eating lots of meat / fried foods lately, so when sister and I went to the market, I bought some vegetables. The patola is quite expensive at the moment, but I didn't really care, I missed eating this dish!

We weren't able to eat it for dinner that day because mom bought bangus for dinner, so I just cooked this the next day for lunch. If there are more patola in the market, might cook this again next week.
